Usability >>> ads! No ads!

Leave a quality comment in a post! I decided my “scaling up” will not be removing myself from responding to comments. Same with email.

Q3: Who is my "one reader"?

My "one reader(s)" (marketing calls this "avatar") are my hypothetical family.

Know you are very much wanted and loved.

Done is better than “perfect.” Perfect is confidence to write to you anyway.

“Family means no one gets left behind. Or forgotten.”

Q4: The heck does "multi-passionate" mean?

I entered the online space in 2003 (age 15) when Xanga hosting was a thing. I knew then I wanted to maintain my own hosted blog long-term.

It remains a dream twenty years later. I couldn’t distill into one identity (“niche”) to be the authority on. Now I know I don’t have to. If I just do, DO.

😜 [chuckles, do do]

Here’s what this blog will highlight:

  • Languages (my first love) - what I went to university for.

  • Psychology (my second love) - what I also went to university for. If I can somehow combine the two degrees, I’d be one of the rare creatives able to make TWO work.

  • Points and miles travel

  • Copywriting and copyediting

  • Nomadic travel - Slow and group travel while spending 360 days in transiting in airports and hotels in 2023.

  • Observational humor - It’s a coping mechanism. Think of me as a less sarcastic Chandler Bing.
